Due for a NYD thing at mine with extended family
my DM has mh issues and has been starting all day iv now had to leave my house with my child as I felt to afraid on my own and she wouldn’t stop shouting
before I’d just go back and suffer it and then try keep it calm whilst I take her home but I don’t want to anymore
am I bu to cancel it with them with less than an hour until they arrive? I just feel lik disappearing off the face of the earth I can’t take it anymore

Call the police.

You deserve better in your life.

I'm sorry this is happening to you.

Op, it’s really reasonable for you to NOT want to be around your Mum. Her behaviour was poor and you don’t have to accept it.

wait for others to get there and go in with them, explain to them about her behaviour and that you want her to leave now and she is refusing.

you are an adult and this is your home.

get her out and never have her back. If you have to see her only let it be where YOU can walk away and be safe.

her being in your home has shown you it is not safe for you as she won’t leave.

she is very unreasonable

Is she on meds, has she stopped taking them? I'd think about phoning the police, sometimes it can get the person help more quickly. Your child shouldn't have to experience this.

Call the police, change the locks and look into getting a restraining order.

Forcing you to leave your own house for your and your child's safety is unacceptable behaviour

You'll have to tell the rest of your family.
She can say what she likes, you need to protect your child and yourself.
Just tell them that you need help.

WhatNoRaisins · 01/01/2024 16:03

This doesn't sound at all like a safe situation for you and your child.

Thegoodbadandugly · 01/01/2024 16:26

You don't have to put up with this abuse, mental health issues are not an excuse to abuse people. Phone the police and get her removed and if you have any sense you will cut her out your life, she will never change unless she gets proper treatment.
